I dont know - ifs its done well hardly anyone would know any different - admittedly people that know their s**t would spot it but to the average boy racer etc they would look genuine. Its not like he has stuck huge BREMBO stickers down the side of the car - they are quite subtle
I was there - had a top day, was in the renault stand too!
the porsche gt cup was wicked - they sound gorgeous.
didnt think i would need ear plugs until the F1 started - what a sound - the whole grandstand vibrated each time a car went past.
Buttons car on fire was definately the highlight
Oh...
thanks - im pleased with it now - having my original plenham matched and polished at the moment so should look better again when finished.
the strut tops are a great cheap mod - I have polished mine quite a lot though - when you get them you can still see the lines in the metal from where they...
I sent some fk coilovers back about 8/9 weeks ago - have rung them about 10 times to find out whats happening - get told they will look into it and ring me back later - 9 weeks is a long time to wait for a call back! Guess Ill ring them again today! other than that though they are great!
cool - glad its sorted - does it seem quicker again now? if its any consolation my 172 feels slow as fook at the moment due to this hot weather - reckon im losing about 20bhp by the feel of it!
those black dots look like stone chips to me - they look good enough though - only way of getting them better is either to paint them or replace them. Middo on here will paint them for you any colour you like and does a top job
the main problem that everyone has is that the mount is basically crap! way to much movement in it so need some way of stopping it - this was Charlies method!
charlie put lots of pieces of silicon hose into my mount with bolts going through just to stop the mount having so much play - seemed to do the job - ill take a picture for you now
im the same mate - had the paint for a month or so - could have done it this weekend but not really looking forward to it so keep coming up with other jobs to do first!
Look really good - got Silver paint for mine as well - how long did you spend sanding - did you clean them with anything else...
must have made a nice mess!
going back to the decat - has your emmisions light come on - one of the lads on here 'gadlys' had a prospeed decat 2000 miles ago and still no light come on so am very tempted - BB tuning are supposed to be making one that stops the light coming on but its £50 ore...
why dont you paint the letters as well if its difficult then sand it off afterwards - should be alot easier and the renault sport will need a slight sand with some 800/1200 paper to get shiny anyway
dont worry Mark - Ive been having another look and love them as they are - been sunny today and they look wicked - subtle but effective if you notice it
mark did mine 2 weeks ago as well - really pleased with them - he does a great job. after seeing yours though I wish I had asked for the numbers on the badges to be silver like yours
i miss my old gt turbo so much - it was great fun - bloody expensive to keep going but would not have missed owning one. Your mate needs to sort out the GT turbo decals for the passenger side - they look so much better with them on - although I think they are about £150 a side!!
will try and...
mine did the same thing - ive gone through 3 surrounds now! - doesnt move any more but has been back to prospeed about 4 times now- needs adjusting mate
